Overview

Discover Kenya’s Private Wilderness Beyond the Classic Safari

Your safari begins in Nairobi, with a transfer from your hotel to Wilson Airport for your flight into the remote wilderness of Laikipia.

Located within the vast Loisaba Conservancy, Loisaba Lodo Springs offers a completely different perspective of Kenya, one defined by space, privacy and an authentic connection with nature.

Set across 57,000 acres of protected wilderness, Loisaba is a private conservancy where wildlife conservation, community partnerships and exceptional safari experiences come together.

With only eight spacious tented suites overlooking the Laikipia plains towards Mount Kenya, Loisaba Lodo Springs provides an intimate safari experience far removed from the busier routes of traditional safari destinations.

Here, the focus is not simply on seeing wildlife, but on experiencing the wilderness itself : exploring vast landscapes, discovering conservation projects and enjoying the freedom to choose how you spend your time.


A Private Conservancy Experience

Unlike national parks, where vehicles follow established routes, Loisaba offers the freedom and exclusivity of a private conservancy.

The 57,000-acre landscape is home to elephants, lions, leopards, cheetahs, wild dogs and the endangered Grevy’s zebra, while playing a vital role as an elephant corridor connecting Kenya’s northern wilderness areas.

Your stay supports conservation initiatives protecting wildlife and supporting neighbouring Samburu and Maasai communities.


Your Stay at Loisaba Lodo Springs

Your accommodation is part of an intimate collection of only eight spacious luxury tented suites, each designed to maximise comfort while keeping you connected to the surrounding wilderness.

Each suite features:

✓ Private veranda with panoramic views
✓ Spacious en-suite bathroom
✓ Solar-heated rainfall shower
✓ Comfortable lounge area
✓ Elegant interiors inspired by the surrounding landscape

A dedicated guest ambassador ensures every detail of your stay is taken care of.

Good To Know

1. Best Time to Visit Laikipia Conservancy:

Loisaba Lodo Springs is open throughout the year, and each season offers a different safari experience. The best time to visit depends on your priorities, whether that is wildlife viewing, photography, fewer visitors or enjoying the landscape at its most dramatic.

• June to October – Best for wildlife viewing
The dry season is one of the most popular times to visit Laikipia. As water sources become more limited, wildlife gathers around permanent water areas, making sightings easier. The cooler, dry weather is ideal for game drives, walking safaris and outdoor activities.

• November to December – Best for landscapes and photography
The short rains transform the conservancy with fresh green vegetation. This is an excellent period for photographers, birdwatchers and travellers looking for beautiful scenery with fewer visitors.

• January to March – Best for birdlife and young animals
Laikipia remains green, birdlife is abundant and many animals give birth during this period. It can be an excellent time to witness young wildlife and increased predator activity.

• April to May – Best for quieter safari experiences
The long rainy season brings fewer visitors, dramatic skies and lush landscapes. Some activities may occasionally be affected by weather conditions, but the conservancy remains a beautiful destination for travellers seeking tranquillity and exclusivity.

Unlike many traditional safari destinations, Laikipia offers exceptional experiences throughout the year thanks to its private conservancies, diverse habitats and wide range of activities beyond traditional game drives.

2. What are the luggage restrictions?

Safari flights operate with small aircraft and have limited luggage capacity. Guests should bring soft-sided bags only (no hard suitcases).
The standard luggage allowance is 15 kg per person, including hand luggage.
Additional luggage allowance can be purchased in advance, subject to availability and aircraft capacity. Please contact us before travelling if you require extra baggage allowance.
